During February, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). Fatigue might occur with continuous exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
